Overview
What this part is
The SIM tray on the iPhone 12 mini slides into the side of the frame and holds your nano-SIM card. If the tray is lost, bent or cracked, the SIM can sit loose and the phone may show No SIM, and the gap in the frame lets dust in.
This part replaces the tray only. Choose the colour that matches your phone's frame. It fits the SIM slot of the iPhone 12 mini; trays for other models are a slightly different size and shape.

How to check your model
Open Settings › General › About. The model name should read iPhone 12 mini. Tap the model number to see the A-number (for example A2176).
The iPhone 12 mini has a 5.4-inch screen and two rear cameras set side by side vertically. The iPhone 13 mini is the same size but its cameras sit diagonally.
Professional installation
How a technician fits this part
- Power the phone off.
- Push a SIM ejector tool into the small hole beside the tray and pull the old tray out.
- Place the nano-SIM card in the new tray, gold contacts facing down.
- Slide the tray back in the right way round until it sits flush.
- Power on and check the phone reads the SIM.
Check that the part matches the device before fitting it or removing any adhesive backing. Once a part has been fitted, it cannot be returned for a change of mind. Faulty parts are always covered.
